CHAPTER 379
Chapter 379 Even You Don’t Want Me
“About seven years old.” After pondering for a moment, Simon said, “At that time, you were probably … seven years old?”
He only deduced it based on his age and was not very sure. However, there was one thing that he was certain of. “You came with your dad and mom that time.”
“My dad and mom…” To Silvia, this form of address was a distant matter.
Even the images of her parents in her memories were so blurry that she could barely remember their faces.
“I don’t have any impression.” Shaking her head, Silvia was a little depressed.
In fact, after her parents passed away, she suffered mental torment. Later, she could no longer remember what had happened before. She felt depressed because she forgot her parents’ appearance and lost her memories,
At that time, his grandfather said that it was also a good thing that she didn’t remember. His grandfather told her that she should forget the past and live a good life in the future. But for Silvia, knowing that she had lost a part of her memory was a very sad thing, especially when she failed to remember it no matter how hard she tried.
“If I were only seven years old, how old were you then? Do you mean that you had a crush on me when you were a kid?” Silvia thought about it and continued, “No, it’s impossible. I was only seven years old then. You wouldn’t have a crush on a seven-year-old child, right?”
“What are you thinking?” Simon flicked Silvia’s forehead and said with a smile, “At that time, you were a cute little girl with a bright smile on your face, just like a ray of sunlight, and…”
Staring at Silvia’s face, Simon suddenly reached out and pinched her soft cheek. “There is also a little puppy-fat on your face.”
“Ah!” Suddenly being pinched, Silvia exclaimed and patted his hand, but she couldn’t help but ask with doubt, “And then?”
“You still remember my parents? What did our family go to your house for?”
“That year, my grandmother was celebrating her birthday. You guys should be here to
attend her birthday party.” Compared to Silvia’s overflowing interest, Simon did not seem to be very willing to recall it. He added, “It has been too long, and I do not remember much!”
Silvia could vaguely feel that it was not that Simon did not remember it, but that he did not want to recall it. As for why, Simon did not say it.
However, in everyone’s heart, there must be a past that they did not want to be mentioned, so Silvia did not ask further.
“There will be a new batch of equipment in the studio tomorrow. Can you handle it?” Simon asked with concern.
“Of course, I can handle it.” She hurriedly nodded. As soon as she spoke, she thought of the two distinct lines on the pregnancy test kit and could not help but feel a little uneasy.
Not wanting him to see through her, Silvia yawned and said, “I wonder if I’ve been too tired lately. I’m a little sleepy and want to sleep for a while.”
“Go to sleep then.” Without any doubt, Simon nodded. He continued, “I still have something to deal with. Can you sleep on your own?”
“Of course. Do you still think I’m a child?” She pushed Simon’s shoulders with both hands and continued, “Go and do your work. I’m going to sleep!”
After being pushed by Silvia, Simon took a few steps. He turned around when he was at the door and lowered his head to kiss Silvia’s forehead. “Be good.”
Silvia felt warm in her heart. Like a kitten, she said, “Okay.”
.
After watching Simon go downstairs, Silvia finally breathed a sigh of relief, but her mind was in a mess.
She couldn’t help but touch her belly with her hand. This child… What should she do?
Vicente was in the factory. Looking at the bottles of beautifully packaged perfume on the assembly line being packed out, he beamed with pleasure.
These bottles of perfume were about to go to the market and then turn into large piles of banknotes. Vicente would gain more. He even felt that it was not that difficult to earn
money!
Back then, his father told him that it was not easy to do business. He told him to be careful and learn more. Now it seemed that his father was relatively conservative and couldn’t keep up with the times. Vicente thought that as long as he dared to do business, it was not difficult to make money.
“Mr. Petersen, this batch of perfume will be completed in a week, and soon it will be commercially available,” the person in charge of the production reported to Vicente. Text content © .
Nodding his head, Vicente said, “Good job! When the time comes, all of you will be heroes!”
“Thanks, Mt. Petersen.”
“Oh, by the way, has that deputy manager Ladarius been here recently?” Vicente thought about it and asked.
“No.” The person in charge of the production sighed and said, “From the official start of the assembly line, Mr. Flores has never been here once. However, he has called twice, but he only gave a few reminders and asked about the production schedule. He did not say anything else.”
“Never been here?” Raising his voice, Vicente was angry. He snorted coldly, “He is quite
idle.”
Vicente thought, Ladarius, you only know how to boast, but in the end, you are nothing but a lazy man. You even boasted that you are an elite in this industry and had plenty of experience. I guess you mean the experience of how to shirk your responsibilities.
However, Vicente thought it was also a good thing. When it was time to award people according to their contributions, Ladarius would get nothing. Moreover, Vicente could even take the opportunity to kick Ladarius out. Who knew if Ladarius was really obedient to Vicente or a spy sent by Ingrid? Anyway, Vicente would keep a lookout for Ingrid’s people. When Vicente took control of the company, he would replace some people with his trusted subordinates.
“Maybe he is too busy.” The person in charge of the production didn’t want to offend anyone, so he smiled and said, “But Mr. Petersen, you have really worked hard. You often come over to follow up on the production.”
“This project is very important. Nothing can go wrong. Of course, I have to keep an eye
on it.”
After a pause, Vicente walked to the door and turned back. “By the way, give me a bottle of perfume first.”
“Yes!” The person in charge of the production immediately ordered someone to pack up a bottle of perfume and send it over. Taking the bottle of perfume, Vicente held it in his hand and looked at it. “Alright, I’ll leave first.”
He left with the perfume and headed straight to where his mother lived.
In fact, that was also the home he had lived in for more than twenty years, and he had only recently moved to the Petersen’s villa. In the previous years, he had always lived with his mother.
The environment of her mother’s house was not bad. It was still in the villa area, but how could it compare with the Petersen’s villa? In the end, the main house was the main house. Living outside would always have a feeling of being abandoned.
The atmosphere at home was not good, and Vicente had actually guessed it before he came back.
However, he still walked in with a smile. He called, “Mom.”
There was no one in the living room. In the end, Vicente found his mother in the bedroom. Leslie lay on the bed lazily. She was not very happy when he saw Vicente. She said, “You are back.”
“Mom, are you not feeling well? Are you sick?” Vicente sat down next to the bed and reached out to touch Leslie’s forehead. The temperature was normal and not hot.
However, Leslie couldn’t hold back her sadness when she felt the warmth from Vicente’s soft hand. Tears welled up in her eyes. She looked like she had been wronged. “Vicente, only you care about me. I had thought that even you don’t want me anymore!”
Vicente was shocked.
